Removing real-life aversions from No Animals Were Harmed


* TheGrandHunt: The movie has a sequence that is the most iconic rendition of this. It's set in the late thirties and the mansion has a large game reserve filled with partridges, foxes and rabbits. The party, filled with aspiring bourgeois, appoint a gamekeeper and servants to march into the reserve to chase out the animals for their sport and the result is a shocking montage sequence of birds, foxes, rabbits hunted in shot-after-shot, and the film averted NoAnimalsWereHarmed by having live animals killed on camera.

* ItIsPronouncedTroPAY: An unusual case (since the dialogue is in French), but Schumacher is from Alsace and has an obviously German surname (the German version of Shoemaker). Everyone in the cast pronounces it as if it were a French name (Shew - Mar - Shay) rather than (Shew - Mah - ker).
